The Right Kind of
Study
"Twenty minutes of concentrated, untired attention is
infinitely better than three hours of the kind of frowning application that
leads us to say, with a sense of duty done: 'I have worked well.' "
-Simone Weil
Learning is not about accomplishing our duty, checking off a
list of assignments, or impressing our superiors.
It is about deeply loving
knowledge and passionately seeking to know more and more. It is, ultimately,
all about fun.
If it is something else, it will be a chore, and we will give it
as little focus as possible--or worse, too much of the wrong kind of focus.
~Oliver and Rachel DeMille, TJEd.org
